Hiya,
I just finished a minor fit caused by trying to install
the ADUS release of LaTex on a DN4500. It is using SR10.1 which
causes some problems. Here is what I did, please let me know how
to do it right.
In /tex/lucid/build-programs1 :
changed all occurances of -M3000 to
-A nansi -A cpu,3000
Created links in /tex/web2c/cmdir to the
appropriate .mf fonts (plain, U_Wash, cbase).
Gave up when /tex/lucid/build-programs2 died a major death.
How do I get the stuff to compile properly ? Has anyone actually
got things to work ? Does anyone have a list of changes ? Actual makefiles
or replacement files ?
Please respond soon

First, I believe the SR9.7 executables and fonts shipped on the ADUS tape
should continue to work, though suboptimally, on SR10.1.
Second, all I had to do to build a TeX on SR10.1 was to change occurrences
of "-M3000" to "-A cpu,3000" in build-programs1 and build-programs2. Perhaps
using "-A nansi" is causing you problems.
Finally, I am just putting the finishing touches on an updated TeX system
built for SR10.1 on both 68020/68030 and PRISM machines. This version
features include:
o Compound executables built for both 68020/68030 and PRISM.
o No longer needs "/sys/ins" files to build.
o (i.e. Builds on a node without AEGIS installed.)
o New versions of DVIAPOLLO and PXL2APOLLO that work with
SR10.1 fonts.
o 32-bit large capacity TeX's are the default.
o Built from the latest versions of TeX, MF, LaTeX, etc.
TeX runs very fast on the DN10000; the DN10000 also rebuilt all 906 fonts
with MetaFont in just 6.5 hours!
